FAQs for Almshouse Green
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
